Pipeline

Version history and changelog of the publishing pipeline. Current version: v3.13.0

v3.4.0 — 2026-03-15

  • Chief Editor review now works directly on the PR branch instead of main — review files, source snapshots, and submission land together in a single merge

v3.3.0 — 2026-03-03

  • Source fetching now uses browser-like HTTP headers (Chrome User-Agent, Accept-Language, Sec-Fetch-*) to reduce bot detection and 403 responses from news sites
  • Automatic retry with 3-second delay on transient errors (HTTP 403, 429, 5xx) before recording a failure
  • Archive.org fallback: sources that remain inaccessible after retry are automatically fetched from the Wayback Machine — snapshot and manifest record archive_fallback: true
  • HTTP error severity differentiation in editorial review: 403/401/429/5xx are now warning (bot-blocked or transient), while 404/410 and network errors remain error (dead links)

v3.2.0 — 2026-02-18

  • Chief Editor review now fetches every source URL and verifies reachability — dead links (HTTP 4xx/5xx) are flagged as errors, timeouts as warnings
  • HTML snapshots of all source pages are archived in sources/YYYY-MM/article-slug/ with a per-article manifest.json recording status codes, content hashes, and timestamps
  • Add sources_reachable checklist item to editorial reviews
  • Add npm run sources:snapshot standalone CLI for manual source archival
  • Add sourceManifestSchema to shared Zod schemas
  • Add Vitest test suite covering source snapshots, review integration, and schema validation

v3.1.1 — 2026-02-10
